Drama Queen

Livid,
she tears in
a spiraling tornado !
Wrenching open chiffonier mahogany
hurtling the finest whites
goblets , flutes and thistles.
Splitting smithereens wallop
tiles of ceramic.


Squandered
clambers manic,
furiously unlatching.
Fervor dispersed
eyeliners and mascaras dissolve,
waterworks with caterwaul
commingle.

Effete,
straggle disheveled
dummy up.
Flicks, swirls , brushes
concealer.
simmered down decibels
fury fists unclench.

Cascading
tight smiles , eyes lowered
 furtively concocting
fingers musically patting oak ingress.
Crescendoing to a loud rap.

Suffused
with castigating ire
prancing here then there
beseeching mocked
and shunned
haunches droop ,marching feet left
then right, hands falling to the side.

Pensive
Piano.keys weighted
decrescendos to subdued.
flopping face one side,
crisscrossed arms on ebony,
downpour of spotlight.

Applause !!
Bowing to the encore pleas and catcalls.
Ecstatic , her theatrics resonated
slipping off the soloist heels

Evocative.
The drama queen.
